Obviously false memes are all over Facebook these days.

Saw this one this morning. First, the 2020 election wasn't stolen. Second, only about half the states used Dominion machines and Dominion took Fox News for billions of bucks because of Fox's claims that they swayed the election. Third, the biggie, does anyone believe President Trump won California?!? LOL!

Also, why insert Germany into you false meme, Mr. False Meme Maker?

I suspect the people believing that are dutifully paying their EZ Pay tolls they are texted about.

Facebook is a scourge on society. Haven't updated my page since about 2006, when I was in college and got a friend request from my mom. Quit right then.

All that money is going right to the Kangaroo Court . . . .and they don’t even know it.

Just wait until they open their bank statement. . .

Cutting edge intelligent meme from Facebook here:

I think I know who one of our anti-vaxxers is now. So many stupid memes out there.

The thing that makes this crap even more irritating is it being so easy to find correct information. All it takes is, well, the things the average person lacks.

Out of curiosity I googled CDC vaccine schedule 2024. First link is the CDC site with a graphic for ages and recommendations. People barely have to read. BTW, 19 total by 18.

Honestly makes me wonder why people who keep things running don't just quit and retire to the countryside.

All the more irritating is this one was posted by one of my former Sailors. People in the military get all the vaccines plus - like anthrax. This guy didn't even get 60 vaccinations as a member of the military. He should know it's false on its face.

Spreading false information on social media results in real harm to real people, like this young lady, her boyfriend and her family:

ESPN’s Pat McAfee and others amplified a false rumor. A teenager’s life was ‘destroyed’

An Ole Miss freshman has engaged legal representation and says she intends to take action against McAfee, ESPN, and potentially others

I'd love to have that case. McAfee is going to get shamed into paying some money, I'd guess, as he should be.

Her lawyer is well-educated:

I opposed the ACA as anyone that was here at the time knows, but I attacked it truthfully. It's law and not going away, but this meme still attacks it falsely. All that information is available online and every tax rate they mention is incorrect:

 

[hookyIU1990]

Yeah, but some memes ring true. My industry is 100% like this right now:

You ever have "Bubbles Notetaker" summarize a Zoom call you were on?

Never heard of it til yesterday. Client set up the call using Zoom, we use Teams.

Get this summary email 2 mins after the call with key points highlighted, BS table talk eliminated, and then a checklist of things to do for each person.

Kinda cool, but a little too Big Brotherish.

Mcafee is a genuinely good dude from everything I’ve seen. He’s meant to be ESPN’s more off color programming but I was absolutely shocked when he took this on.

He should pay restitution and offer a public apology. I’m confident he will.

We're a Google shop, so I use Gemini. It's pretty good with that stuff.

Before Gemini was released I tried a few different ones and settled on Mem for a short period.

It's definitely Big Brotherish. I can go into Gemini and pull analytics from everyone on my team who uses it and look for key words and phrases. I can read the raw transcript in addition to the summary.

Tons of false memes on Facebook today. I've seen this one many times over the past few years and it's still false:

It's one that's obviously false on its face except to those that post it. Searches on any random item on that list shows that item is false or exaggerated beyond any semblance of reality. I searched the one about Schiff first because the name isn't even spelled correctly (a tell for false memes) and found that Schiff doesn't even HAVE a sister. Fact checker has it all in one convenient location:

Social Posts Distort Facts on Political Relationships - FactCheck.org

Social media posts falsely claim that California Gov. Gavin Newsom is House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's nephew, and that Rep. Adam Schiff has a sister who is married to the son of George Soros. It also falsely states that a daughter of former Secretary of State John Kerry is married to a "mullah's...

it's still false

sad thing is...

You provide absolute proof that an allegation is false, and its believers cling on to it even tighter, saying

-you must be related to Soros/ Hillary / Pelosi / etc
-you are getting "shill bucks" to say that
-my Friend on Truth social knows more than you do
-etc, etc, etc.

I sometimes think that being a truthteller is futile

For that particular one, from Chelsea up it's all false. Everything after Chelsea seems to be true though I'm not sure what they're supposed to prove.
